Administrator
There are four types of administrators according to administrative function: machine administrator,
network administrator, file administrator, and user administrator. We recommend a different person
for each administrator role.
In this way, you can spread the workload and limit unauthorized operation by a single
administrator.
Basically, administrators make machine settings and manage the machine; but they cannot perform
normal operations, such as copying and printing.
Supervisor
The supervisor can reset an administrator's password. This is required if an administrator's
password is lost or revealed, or if an administrator is changed.
The supervisor can neither perform normal operations nor specify default settings.
User
A user performs normal operations on the machine, such as copying and printing.
File Creator (Owner)
This is a user who can store files in the machine and authorize other users to view, edit, or delete
those files.
Registered User
Users with personal information registered in the Address Book who have a login password and
user name.
Administrator Authentication
Administrators are authenticated by their login user name and login password, supplied by the
administrator, when specifying the machine's settings or accessing the machine over the network.
User Authentication
Users are authenticated by a login user name and login password, supplied by the user, when
specifying the machine's settings or accessing the machine over the network.
The user's login user name and password, as well as such personal information items as facsimile
number and e-mail address, are stored in the machine's address book. The personal information
can be obtained from the Windows domain controller (Windows authentication), LDAP Server
(LDAP authentication), or Integration Server (Integration Server authentication) connected to the
machine via the network. The "Integration Server" is the computer on which Authentication
Manager is installed.
Login
This action is required for administrator authentication and user authentication. Enter your login user
name and login password on the machine's control panel. A login user name and login password
